He could be well away by now, he could even be back in the UK. Hope he gets what he deserves though.

He didn't say 'foreigners', he said 'Western expats'.

True

Not sure that changes anything.

would be rather sad if more falang were killed, or
lost everything, and was not even a tsunami in sight.
was that the same 7/11 that a fellow got stabbed a few
months ago.?Could go Guinness Book that 7/11.

I haven't seen a mention of this on the news (UK), may have missed it of course, but i do know there is an all ports alert for him.
He would not stay free long in the UK, my guess would be he will be found in Indonesia or Cambodia.

It was one of the top featured stories on skynews.com all day today (monday).

the other thread about our best friend<
Mike Tyson.. 'roids' seem as similar as meth
in as much as they can throw a baby off a
bridge, perhaps Mr Aldhouse can say,
"well, at least i didnt throw my kid off a bridge...
yet" No not yet, but it was on the cards.
if you invite violence into your heart in such a
happy place as Thailand, and I sit next to you on a
BUS, I must make departure, and pray for the other
passengers.This particular FVCK isnt unusual in this
nice space these days. ruined now by those types.
seems like you cannot even take a piss in peace.
AND I MEAN IT.. wake up.. this is nice space..
go look your own country..cunts like Mr Lee should
have been taken care of well before this episode.
Would have in London/ Sydney/ Miami..
They say, "oh the guy is a case ,
I knew him one and half years"
Like saying,, I think its a World War Two Bomb, but....
It wont go off......more noodles?
Well.. if I saw anything that could harm anyone, be it
a fucking bomb, or a nut case on 'roids'..
it must be defused, immediately.
that, my friends is a failure.
There are many in Bangkok.. really heavy types.
They say "Bi Polar" at the trial.. but your mate is dead.
Friends, its time to love each other, not boxing in a urinal.
Fair play,but this was not fair play, we must
get better at loving each other. "hello how are you"

America is one f*cked nation with f*cked up people for sure, so why start bleeting about the Irish etc. etc. etc.

I notice you didn't mention the Slave Traders, KKK, Red Necks, Drug Addicts and the prisons that are over capacity in the great USA!

Give it a rest and keep to the topic.... Mr. Lee may have killed the Yank but innocent until proven guilty and who knows maybe the Yank was spaced out on steroids and stabbed himself?

But to be honest does anyone really give a shit?

^ not really, dont care much for the news, hope they catch him though, would be nice to see that happen

The Brits in Patter and Bangkok are the worst expats I've seen.

But you brought up this topic, not anyone else.

The killer in the case (British) has a history or problems.

More will come to light.


Let me guess, you're British.

To be honest whether your British or American is NOT the point and yes I'm which for your information is not the same as Brittish!

This story has obviously inflamed the passions of some but until the whole story unfolds everbody should try to stay neutral where possible.

It doesn't matter whether he's English and it doesn' matter whether in your opinion the expat "Brits" as you refer to them are the worst behaved you have ever seen as I'm sure you're no authority about expat behaviour worldwide.

I don't know any more than what I've read about this story but I'm sure of one thing, the police in Phuket are as crooked and inept as anywhere else and I wouldn't trust them to get any details about this case right under any circumstances.

If the guy gets arrested and if he has enough money for a guarrantee then he will walk for sure and he will never appear before a court in Thailand. The story will die a natural death and if neccessary the police will conveniently lose any evidence they have collected, if any?

Wait and see what happens.... and FUCK Britannia cos I love Thailand!

I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that you can't understand what the others are saying?

I've been in Bangkok for years, I have rarely seen bad behaviour in terms of fighting, the worst two incidences were a group of South Africans and a lone New Zealander.

As for hearing people and disliking their comments, yes, I'd agree Brits can be the worst, but then if a group of Italians are sitting next to me, or Swedes, or Germans I wouldn't understand what they were saying, so I wouldn't be able to judge.

I've also heard plenty of obnoxious Americans, although they are at a disadvantage because you can usually easliy listen to any conversation involving them when they are in a bar, they don't have to be on the next table.

Very true, why are they so often loud and arrogant know it alls ?

I don't necessarily think they are any more arrogant than the English or the Australians, but they most certainly are noticably louder in normal conversation.

I have a good American friend, nice guy not arrogant at all, but he talks in such an embarrassingly loud way. I don't like being in a bar with him, everyone knows exactly what we are talking about. I feel like telling him "I'm on the same table as you, no need to shout", but he'd be so offended so I don't bother, but I see him less and less because of it.

Disagree, the system for the Thai's doesn't apply to foreigners unless they have 'real' money, which I suspect this guy does not.

I think they'll see bereaking him as a challenge.

What's all the fuss about - sounds like an average friday/saturday night in Surfers Paradise?

I'd have no problen saying hey dude dial it down a little. Thais don't like loud people. If he said so what, I would get up and say, well I don't want to be known as the ugly American...see you later.

I'm a little more polite to good friends.

So instead of telling him the truth and most likely letting him know something that he may not understand or be aware of, you say you are spending less time with him because of it. That does not seem like you are a good friend.

I agree that it's unlikely that he has got back to the UK, but if by chance he has, would the UK send him back to Thailand for trial? Thailand has the death penalty for murder, and the UK will not send anyone to any counrtry for trial if the chance of being sentanced to death exsists.

Good point. If he gets to the UK he is for all intents and purposes a free man.

If he gets out of Thailand it would be easy enough to get on a plane back to the UK, avoiding Thailand altogether. Say Cambodia>KL>Heathrow.

Colonel Vichid's posting before becoming superintendent at Chalong was as an Immigration controller at Phuket International Airport for seven years, so he has some idea of the difficulty in sorting good from bad.

I bet he knows about the plans to introduce a compulsory police check for non immigrant visas from next year.
